I’ve shared this service with GRS readers in the past, and will do so every year in the future (so long as the program exists). I think it’s awesome.<\/p>\n Free File is a great deal for many people.<\/b> Check into it if you haven’t done your taxes yet. For more info, read the Free File FAQ<\/a> at the IRS website. (The IRS website is actually awesome. You can find tons of tax info there. I’m not ashamed to admit that I’ve spent many hours digging through their resources.)<\/p>\n If you’ve<\/i> used Free File before, please share your impressions.<\/b> I’m sure other GRS readers would welcome hints and tips. For myself, I’ll be off to see my accountant as soon as I return from Africa. I don’t qualify for Free File \u2014 and besides, my accountant always saves me money.
